Bush in the last paragraphs said the Bible speaks of life and death...choose life....them's fightin words my friends.....a plan has been chosen and Bush is no wussy.

I loved that quote from the Bible. Could someone please post it?

I didn't hear the speech, but based on what I've read here:

1) Bush's speech implies that as long as Arafat is calling the shots, then Israel has every right to defend itself by all means necessary.

2) By ending his speech with the bible quote, he is telling the Muslim world that "we know what your ultimate goal is and we will not let the Christian world be taken over."

I'm not always a Bush supporter, but this sounds like it was equally balsy as his post-9/11 speech.

In the few months I have been on FR I have gradually learned not to believe everything I hear at the start. Have to admit that things seem to be following a specific plan and so I will keep my yap shut until the "End game", If you told me a few months back that President Bush was in fact headed in this direction I would have discounted it right at the start. I am still disheartened with his stance on "Open Borders", but I will assume for the moment this administration has a plan, which might also include getting enough Congress/Senate critters, American Citizens peeved off enough to get legislation passed designed to close the sieve we call our Borders.
